-
FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a method for assessing a vehicle usage status of a user according to one embodiment of the invention. - It should be pointed out that the following method of this embodiment may be implemented by an onboard apparatus, or implemented by a remote computer system outside the vehicle, or even implemented by the onboard apparatus and the remote computer system cooperatively. Exemplarily, the case where the method is implemented by the onboard apparatus is used as an example here.
- It should be pointed out that the onboard apparatus here should be broadly understood as a computing device installed or loaded on the vehicle, including, but not limited to, a central control system of the vehicle, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc.
- As shown in
FIG. 1 , instep 110, the onboard apparatus determines dimensions required for assessing a vehicle usage status of a user, each of the dimensions actually reflecting a feature category of the vehicle usage status. Theses feature categories for example include, but are not limited to, health care, use time, driving performance, familiarity, and interaction frequency. In this embodiment, the health care, use time, driving performance, familiarity, and interaction frequency are all used as the dimensions of the vehicle usage status, but this is not necessary. In actual application, one or more of the feature categories exemplified above may be used, or feature categories not exemplified here may also be used. - Then, the process proceeds to step 120, in which the values of the dimensions determined in

the total traveling mileage: when the total traveling mileage < 100 km, the value is increased by 0.05 each time the total traveling mileage is increased by 1 km; when 100 km < the total traveling mileage < 1000 km, the value is increased by 0.05 each time the total traveling mileage is increased by 20 km; and when the total traveling mileage is greater than 1000 km, the value is increased by 0.05 each time the total traveling mileage is increased by 100 km. - The frequency of use of the vehicle every week: 0.1 is subtracted from the value if the vehicle is not used for three days or more in a week.
- The daily traveling mileage: the value is increased by 0.2 if the daily traveling mileage > 300 km.
- It should be pointed out that both the calculation rules and the statistical period for the frequency of use of the vehicle and the traveling mileage are only exemplary.
- After
step 122B is performed, the process proceeds to step 130. - In
step 121C, the onboard apparatus acquires, from the local storage device or the remote database, data about a driving stationarity indicator and an energy consumption indicator for the user per unit traveling mileage. - Then, the process proceeds to step 122C, in which the onboard apparatus determines the value of the driving performance dimension according to the data acquired in

step 122D is performed, the process proceeds to step 130. - In
step 121E, the onboard apparatus acquires, from the local storage device or the remote database, data about the number of times that the user wakes up an onboard voice assistant per unit traveling mileage. - Then, the process proceeds to step 122E, in which the onboard apparatus determines the value of the interaction frequency dimension according to the data acquired in
step 121E. Exemplarily, the value of the interaction frequency dimension may be calculated based on: - Preferably, the interaction frequency in this week and the interaction frequency in last week are determined according to the following formula:
- It should be pointed out that both the calculation rules and the statistical period for the interaction frequency are only exemplary.
- After
step 122E is performed, the process proceeds to step 130. - In
step 130, the onboard apparatus obtains, based on the values of the dimensions, an assessed value reflecting the vehicle usage status of the user. Preferably, the onboard apparatus may determine, as the assessed value, a weighted sum of the values of the various dimensions determined in the steps above. - After
step 130, preferably, the method flow shown inFIG. 1 proceeds to step 140, in which the onboard apparatus generates a vehicle usage advice associated with the user based on the assessed value determined instep 130. For example, if the value of the health care dimension is less than a preset threshold, the onboard apparatus will generate a usage advice that the frequency of maintenance of the vehicle should be increased; if the value of the use time dimension is less than a preset threshold, the onboard apparatus will generate an advice that the usage of the vehicle should be increased; if the value of the driving performance dimension is less than a preset threshold, the onboard apparatus will generate an advice that the driving habit should be improved; and if the value of the interaction frequency dimension is less than a preset threshold, the onboard apparatus will generate an advice that the number of times that a music APP or a navigation APP is used should be increased. In this embodiment, a customized threshold may be set for each user. - Then, the process proceeds to step 150, in which the onboard apparatus provides the generated vehicle usage advice to the user. Exemplarily, the usage advices such as maintenance of the vehicle, frequent use of a music APP and a navigation APP, and improvement of driving habits may be displayed by the display of the onboard apparatus in the manner of a video, a picture, text, or a combination thereof, or the corresponding vehicle usage advices are played to the user by the speaker of the onboard apparatus in the manner of a voice or a prompt tone. In addition, the vehicle usage advices may also be presented to the user simultaneously in visual and audio manners.
